INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS1. The space in the room where the appliance is installed must not be smallerthan 10 cubic metres.2. See for detailed Installation Instructions including reversing door opening direction.

3.This appliance has been designed to operate in ambient temperatures up to32 degrees C (90 degrees F) and is equipped with Advanced ElectronicTemperature Control System [AETCS] which ensures that at the advised setting[4 - four on the knob] the frozen food in the freezer will not defrost even ifthe ambient temperature falls as low as -15 °C. When first installed the productMUST NOT be placed in low ambient temperatures because the freezer will notreduce to it’s standard operating temperature. Once it has reached its steadyoperating state it can be re-located. So you may  then  install your appliancein a garage or an unheated room without having to worry about frozen foodin the freezer being spoilt. However at low ambient temperatures mentionedabove, fridge contents are likely to freeze, so check and consume food in thefridge accordingly. When the ambient temperature returns to normal, you maychange the knob setting to suit your needs.If the ambient temperature is below 0°C, the food in the fridge compartmentwill freeze. So, we recommend you don’t use the fridge compartment in suchlow ambient conditions. You can continue using the freezer compartment asusual.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL AND ADJUSTMENT

Operating temperatures are controlled by the setting knob (see diagram) locatedon the ceiling of fridge compartment. Settings may be made from min, 1 ... 6,max, max being the coldest position.When the appliance is switched on for the first time, the setting knob should beadjusted so that after 24 hours, the average fridge temperature is no higherthan +5°C (+41°F). We recommend you set the knob half way between the minand max setting and monitor to obtain the desired temperature i. e. towardsmax you will obtain a colder fridge temperature and vice versa. Some sectionsof the fridge may be cooler or warmer ( such as the salad crisper and the toppart of the cabinet ) which is quite normal.The normal storage temperature of the freezer should be -18°C (0°F). Lowertemperatures may be obtained by adjusting setting knob towards max position.

We recommend that you check the temperature with an accurate thermometertoensure that the storage compartments are kept to the desired temperature.Remember you must take your reading very quickly since the thermometertemperature will rise very rapidly after you remove it from the freezer.Please remember each time the door is opened cold air escapes and the internaltemperature rises. Therefore never leave the door open and ensure it is closedimmediately after food is put in or removed.

In case of a temporary ice build up in the fridge compartment, reduce thethermostat setting to 1, monitoring at the same time that the fridge temperatureis maximum +5 degrees C [41 degrees F]. Once the ice build up disappearsand the appliance starts auto defrosting again as normal, then you may increasethe thermostat setting, if required.

8

If the ambient (room or garage) temperature is between 0 °C and -15 °C, werecommend you adjust the knob to setting 4 to reach -18 C in the freezercompartment. Lower temperatures may be obtained by adjusting setting knobtowards max position.

STORING FROZEN FOOD

Prepacked commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with thefrozen food manufacturer's instructions for a frozen food storagecompartment.To ensure that the high quality achieved by the frozen food manufacturer andthe food retailer is maintained, the following should be remembered:1. Put packets in the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase.2. Ensure that contents are labelled and dated.3. Do not exceed "Use By", "Best Before" dates on the packaging.

If there is a power failure do not open the door. Frozen food should not beaffected if the failure lasts for less than 14 hrs. If the failure is longer, then thefood should be checked and either eaten immediately or cooked and then re-frozen.

9

GETTING STARTED

Before you start using the fridge/freezer check that:

1. The interior is dry and air can circulate freely at the rear of the cabinet.2. Clean the interior as recommended under "CLEANING AND CARE."3. Insert the plug into the wall socket and switch on the electricity supply.• When the door is open the fridge interior light will come on.4. You will hear a noise as the compressor starts up. The liquid and gases sealedwithin the refrigeration system may also give rise to noise, whether the compressoris running or not which is quite normal.5. Set the temperature setting knob half way between 1 and 5.6. Front edges of the cabinet may feel warm. This is normal. These areas aredesigned to be warm to avoid condensation.

7. "Do not load the appliance immediately it is switched on. Wait until thecorrect storage temperature has been reached. We recommend that you checkthe temperature with an accurate thermometer (see; Temperature Control andAdjustment)"

MAKING ICE CUBES

Fill the ice - cube tray 3/4 full with water. Loosen frozen trays with the handleof a spoon, never use sharp edged objects such as knives, forks.

Note: If freshly made ice cubes are not consumed for several weeks, they willslowly reduce in size and eventually disappear completely.

FREEZING FRESH FOOD

Please observe the following instructions to obtain the best results.Do not freeze too large a quantity at any one time. The quality of the food is bestpreserved when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as possible.Do not exceed the freezing capacity of your appliance in 24 h which is 4 kg (9 lb)

Placing warm food into the freezer compartment causes the refrigeration compressorto operate continuously until the food is frozen solid. This can temporarily lead toexcessive cooling of the refrigeration compartment.

You may place fresh food to be frozen in any part of the freezer.

Take special care not to mix already frozen food and fresh food.

DEFROSTING

A) FRIDGE COMPARTMENT

The fridge compartment defrosts

automatically. The defrosting water runs

to the drain tube via a collection container

at the back of the appliance (1).

(see diagram) During defrosting water

droplets may form at the back of the fridge

compartment where concealed evaporator

is located. Some droplets may remain on

the liner and refreeze when defrosting is completed. Do not use pointed or

sharp edged objects such as knives, forks to remove the droplets which have

frozen.

If at any time the defrost water does not drain from the collection channel,

check to ensure that no food particles have blocked the drain tube. The drain

tube can be cleared by pushing the special plastic plunger provided down the

drain tube (2). If the frost layer reaches about 1/4"(7 mm), reduce the setting

(i.e. from 4 to 1) to restart automatic defrosting.

B) FREEZER COMPARTMENT

The freezer compartment defrosts automatically.

WARNINGS!

The fan inside the freezer compartment circulates cold air.

Never insert any object through the guard.

Do not allow children to play with the freezer fan.

Never store products that contain inflammable propellant gas

(eg dispensers, spray cans etc.) or explosive substances.

Don’t cover the shelves with any protective materials, which may obstruct air

circulation.

Do not allow children to play with the appliance or tamper with the controls.

Do not obstruct the freezer fan guard to ensure that you

ENERGY SAVING TIPS1- Ensure your appliance is installed in a well ventilated area. If the ambient temperature is low (but in no case lower than 5 degrees C), then the energy saving will be more. In this case, check temperatures of fridge and freezer compartments with an accurate thermometer and lower the thermostat setting (towards 1) if necessary.2- Ensure the time between buying chilled/frozen food and placing them in your appliance is kept at minimum, particularly in summer. We recommend you use a cool bag or a special carrier bag to carry frozen food.3- Do not leave the door (s) of your appliance open longer than necessary and ensure they are closed properly after each opening.4- Defrost frozen food in the fridge compartment, so that frozen food acts as an ice pack to assist cooling in the fridge.

PROBLEM SOLVING

If the appliance does not operate check whether:• The plug is inserted properly in the socket and that the power supply is on.(To check the power supply to the socket, plug in another appliance)• The fuse has blown/circuit breaker has tripped/main distribution switch has been turned off.• The temperature control has been set correctly.• New plug is wired correctly if you have changed the fitted moulded plug.If the appliance is still not operating after the above checks, please refer to thesection on “How To Obtain Service”.Please ensure that above checks have been made as a charge will be madeif no fault is found.
